Little Miss Perfect (2005)

i'm not like anyone else
and I don't plan to be
i can't live my life
like every girl I see.

blonde hair, bright blue eyes
barbie-like figure, telling lies
it's so sad to see
the loss of individuality
all around me.

low-cut jeans, baby tees
take me away from all of this, please
you're watching too much TV
and admiring too many celebrities.

i've seen too much of this
and it makes me sick
i wish she could disappear
in one magic trick
little miss perfect...

if you expect me, of all people
to be like her
well, you're in for a surprise
my dear, sir.

i prefer to be who i am
not someone in a magazine
i'm not into conformity
i'm a part of my own scene.

little miss perfect
you're giving such a bad message
look alike, sound alike, dress alike
what's wrong with this picture?

i wish she could disappear
in one swift trick.

little miss perfect
can't you see?
individuality is the key...
